Cozy Waikiki Studio 6th floor w/ AC & Lanai • 2 Blocks to Beach • Pool & BBQ

Live the laid-back island lifestyle in this cozy, privately owned Waikiki studio at the Aqua Aloha Surf Hotel featuring a private lanai with partial city, mountain, and Ala Wai canal views—just a short 2-block walk to Waikiki Beach. Perfect for couples or solo travelers, this inviting retreat puts you close to the ocean, restaurants, shopping, nightlife, and everything Waikiki has to offer.

Whether you’re spending your days surfing, exploring Honolulu, or simply relaxing by the pool, this comfortable home base makes it easy to enjoy Oahu at your own pace.

We are located right in the heart of Waikiki - which has a nighttime recreational lifestyle. It is indeed an active city area and as with any city setting you may notice some ambient city sounds at night—something many guests enjoy as part of the Waikiki experience, though it’s worth noting for those who prefer very quiet surroundings.

The unit is equipped with a window-type air conditioner to keep the space cool and comfortable. The AC does produce some operating sound, and guests who are especially sensitive to noise may want to keep this in mind.
